Backup and Restore

Backup and Restore

Back up both named volumes as one recovery set:

• pgdata contains products, settings, price history, jobs, and notification state.
• prizen_secrets contains the encryption key, tracker token, and database password.

Losing prizen_secrets makes encrypted notification and Amazon Creators API credentials unrecoverable. Restoring a database with a different secrets volume can also make credentials unreadable.

Stop writes or stop the stack before taking a filesystem-level volume backup. Test restores using an isolated Compose project before relying on them.
